James Woods blasts Obama; says he'll probably never work in Hollywood again
« on: October 10, 2013, 11:18:16 PM »
I knew James Woods was one of those rare Hollywood conservatives, but it's rarer still for one to be unapologetically strident about it.

Actor James Woods has been quite vocal with his criticism of President Barack Obama in the wake of the government slimdown, and the “Too Big to Fail” star said, as a result, he now expects to struggle to find work in Hollywood.

Woods has been busy tweeting about the slimdown and the President, focusing in particular on the fact that veterans have been unable to visit war memorials in Washington D.C.

“This President is a true abomination. To have barricaded the WW2 vets, but allow illegal aliens privilege...” Woods tweeted on Oct. 8.

But Woods, 66, was just warming up. The actor also called Obama “just vile. A small, small man.”

That prompted one of his followers to ask if the actor was concerned his political views would affect his ability to find gainful employment in Hollywood.

“Dude, aren't u worried about...u know..ever working again??” the Twitter user asked him.

Woods replied: “I don’t expect to work again. I think Barack Obama is a threat to the integrity and future of the Republic. My country first.”

I remember in the aftermath of 9/11/01, Woods coming forth publicly to tell his story of witnessing what he believed in retrospect to be a dry-run for the terrorist attacks. IIRC, about a month before 9/11, Woods contacted the FBI and told them of the incident, and then after 9/11 he was compelled to speak about it.

I've been following him on twitter. He hates Obama like we do.

The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

I'm thinking that Woods is also a highly intelligent person. I'm thinking that he is mensa level smart. I think I read that somewhere once. Maybe. So that sort of explains it but not really. There are plenty of mensa smart people who are total leftists. I seem to remember that Geena Davis was also a semi-genius and she is a far lefty. So I guess that doesn't mean anything when it comes right down to it.

Had the opportunity decades ago to join that group...had zero desire to do so, rubbing elbows with a bunch of pointyheaded elitist professor types never appealed to me...I prefer genuine over insufferable nattering nabobs who smell like stale urine and brie.

Woods went to MIT, PolySci major, dropped out pursue acting.  Likes poker, despises Obama...not seeing anything upsetting to me...   ::thumbsup::

And if I ever do get around to following someone on Twitter I could definitely find worse!

Woods likes 20 yo women as girlfriends and he's nearing 70.  He recently dumped his 26 yo girlfriend of 6 years for a new one who's 20.

He's entertaining but when I see a picture of him with a girlfriend who could be a grandchild it's a turn off.

Doesn't seem fair...I'm much younger than him and have no 20 somethings after me...come to think of it I don't have any somethings after me...

The smarter a person is, and the easier learning comes to them, the more likely they will fall into the trap of narcissism.   They assume that because they could learn anything that they already have. They assume that their ideas are right, and that the dullards around them are wrong and simply grow lazy - unable to deal with intellectual challenges, and so ego invested they are unwilling to admit anyone knows more about anything than they do.
